Merry Christmas --Timeless Template Challenge


Good Morning friends!
Yesterday I missed to post my project for My Time's Challenge; my little one Joshua wasn't feeling very good, he got the flu (thank God he's feeling much better now and is back to normal, you know what I mean: noises, mess around etc)--so even though I had my project done, the photos were not ready to go online.
Our challenge for this week was to use one of Lauren's Templates to package candy. I know Christmas is around the corner, so I wanted to try this awesome "Tucked Away" box and look how beautiful my project turned out:

I plan to use this box filled with home baked goodies as a gift for my boy' friends at school on Christmas Day, it's a great idea! This box was so easy to put together, and I have to confess it's definitely one of my favorites that Lauren has designed.



If you are still looking for more great ideas using Lauren's Templates, stop by and check out what the rest of the team has whipped up for this week:
Now I am sure you are in the mood of making your own project, so please link it to Mr.Linky on Lauren's blog.
Have a great rest of the weekend!

Moxie Fab -- Old Friend card ...


Hello Girls, good morning! I honestly have to tell you that it wasn't in my schedule to have a post today, but when I visited Cath at Moxie Fab World and saw the latest Moxie Fab challenge she was hosting— well, I changed my mind and knew that I already had a card that would fit.

The challenge was to make something using a household item as a focal point. I took the chair image they have in their challenge post and printed it out, then I cut it and put it on top of my card. Love the ivory with black here, they look so rich and elegant together!

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!

My Time To Inspire Challenge --MTTI06

Yes! It's Saturday already! ... Sorry for being a little late today :) This week it's "My Time to Inspire Challenge" ... Sweet colors can make me so happy when I'm creating my cards or projects :) --this is what we have for this week's challenge, take a look:

I love these colors together because they are very inspiring, my card for this week is a vintage card, (I love vintage and for sure is my style).

The card reads "Brothers, need we say more? --I thought in my boys when making this card, they enjoy so much being together, playing with little cars ... or just being outside doing nothing. I love to see them while watching TV, sharing their pop corn :), it's funny 'cause they were born like yesterday!


I used my new embossing folder here, doesn't it look gorgeous? also Martha Stewart "Train Punch" -i love it!
I hope you can play along with us and have fun with the inspiration piece. Do not forget to hop on over to the rest of the Design Team and see what they have come up with, they will inspire you: Lauren, Kendra, Alicia, Maria, Tamara, Jen, Dana, Kristin, Lisa, Pam and Tracey.

And don't forget to link your creation to Mr.Linky here -(our Kristin is hosting this week)- for a chance to be included on Lauren's Top 5 next week!
See you soon with more creations! thanks for stop by :)
